My attempts to get Internet access from an Ubuntu 10.04 over
Bluetoothless via a tethered Verizon Blackberry Storm 2 were
frustratingly unsuccessful. Then I tried Berry4all
(http://www.berry4all.com/home) over a Bluetooth and it worked on my
second attempt, when I ran it sudo'd (as opposed to my first, when I
didn't).
